    VOCALS Site Survey 30 September – 12 October 2007 Arica, Iquique, Santiago, Chile Brigitte Baeuerle, Henry Boynton, Bob Hannigan, José Meitín, Vidal Salazar, Rob Wood, Pete Daum, Juan Aravena GENERAL INFORMATION: Area 756,950 sq. km Population: 16,284,741 (2007 estimate) Government Type Republic President Michelle Bachelet Jeria Capital City Santiago GDP per capita $12,600 Unemployment Rate 7.8% Life expectancy 77 years Infant Mortality Rate 8.36 death / 1000 life births Currency unit Peso Highest point 22,572 ft (Nevado Ojos del Salado) Main cities Concepción, Viña del Mar, Valparaiso National Holiday Independence Day, 18 September OVERVIEW Chile is unique for its very long (2,650 miles) and comparatively narrow (maximum 250 miles) shape and for its great variety of natural features. It extends from latitudes 18 to 56 degrees south and contains one of the driest regions in the world and one of the wettest areas in South America. It is bound on the north by Peru, on the northeast by Bolivia, on its long eastern border (3,200 miles) by Argentina and on the west by the Pacific Ocean. In its economy and public services, Chile is one of the most developed countries in the Andean region. Climate: Extending over 38 degrees of latitude, from the tropics to the vicinity of Antarctica, and from sea level to altitudes of over 20,000 feet, Chile has a wide variety of climatic conditions. Extreme aridity prevails over the northern part of the country; the average annual rainfall in this region is 0.04 inches. Temperatures are moderate along the coast throughout the year and more extreme inland, especially in the central basin.

  • Chile Doing As the “Gateway”? Can It Strengthen This Function? How? 2
    11 DISTRIBUTION AND LOGISTICS This chapter will focus on two main subjects: 1. “Gateway”—How is Chile doing as the “gateway”? Can it strengthen this function? How? 2. Logistics for export and import—How are goods transported and distributed in Chile? What are remaining problems? The first subject will place Chile in the international perspectives. The second subject will concentrate on Chile’s domestic systems. 11.1 Chile as the “Gateway”: International Distribution 11.1.1 International Cargo Movements through the “Gateway” Chile’s function as the “gateway” is already a real one though it is still limited in terms of cargo volume. Figure 11.1.1 is reproduced here (originally Figure 10.2.6, Chapter 10) to indicate the extent of that function. As is seen, transit cargos as a whole only account for a fraction of total international movements.1 It is also evident that most of the transit cargos go through the North Zone, to and from Bolivia primarily. The annual total volume of transit cargos (880,000 tons westbound and 510,000 tons eastbound) may be still insignificant compared with Chile’s total handling volumes. Nonetheless, this present picture clearly illustrates a promising possibility that Chile should pursue: its “gateway” function can expand further. To demonstrate this, Chile’s current position in the international distribution and transportation networks particularly with neighboring countries will be reviewed in following sections. 11.1.2 Macro-Region Andina “Macro-region Andina” is a notion proposed and pursued by authorities concerned in Region I. Without any definite boundaries, it roughly covers an area encompassing the southern part of Peru, most of Bolivia, northern part of Argentina, part of Paraguay, and the states of Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul of Brazil.

  • Hotelera Nacional De Chile" (HONSA): Modern Tourism in the Desert Territory in Northern Chile
    The "Hotelera Nacional de Chile" (HONSA): modern tourism in the desert territory in northern Chile. Claudio Galeno-Ibaceta Universidad Católica del Norte, Escuela de Arquitectura, Av. Angamos 0610, 1270709, Antofagasta, Chile. e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The modern leisure habits result of the right to spare time, increased mobility due to improved transport, education through travel, and enhancement of healthy environments, consolidated in the Chilean desert, a series of modern architectures linked to its context. In November 1933 the Ferrocarriles del Estado began publishing the magazine En Viaje (On Tour), which was the means of disseminating the values and tourism ventures in the country. The magazine precedes the enactment of the law of the annual holiday in January 1934. Since then, the State implemented a territorial politics implementation of tourist services, but takes on greater emphasis from the foundation of the Consorcio Hotelero in 1944, which declares its desire to build hotels in Northern Chile. That entity then joins with the Organización Nacional Hotelera, and together they are called Hotelera Nacional S.A. (HONSA). Keywords: tourism, Chile, hotel, desert, modernity. 01. Tourism in Chile. In Chile, a territorial politics of implementation of tourist architecture promoted by the State was executed; that in addition led all those dispersed national efforts to promote the tourism. The process began from mid thirties, but it had major institutionalism from the foundation of the Consorcio Hotelero de Chile, in 1944, that promoted new constructions, as well as it linked itself to existing entrepreneurship, generating a merge among the State, the local governments and the private world.

A doubly invisible aquifer: Hydrogeological studies and actors’ strategies in the Pampa del Tamarugal Aquifer, northern Chile. Water Alternatives 11(3): 592-606 A Doubly Invisible Aquifer: Hydrogeological Studies and Actorsʼ Strategies in the Pampa del Tamarugal Aquifer, Northern Chile Elisabeth Lictevout Universidad de Concepción, Concepción, Chile; and Carpe Science, San Pedro de la Paz, Chile; [email protected] Nicolas Faysse G-Eau research unit, Cirad, Montpellier University, Montpellier, France; and Asian Institute of Technology, Bangkok , Thailand; [email protected] ABSTRACT: In northern Chile groundwater resources are used intensively for mining activities, drinking water and agriculture. This article analyses the groundwater management in the Pampa del Tamarugal Aquifer, paying special attention to the links between (a) how information relating to groundwater resources and its uses is applied to management and (b) actors’ strategies and discourses on groundwater management. The analysis focuses on two moments: the decision to stop issuing new water rights and the short-lived experience of a regional water resources research centre. Actors never actually discussed an appropriate groundwater pumping rate and some used groundwater resources as a means of pursuing strategies that were not related to water management per se. Many called for a participatory process to allocate water for different uses, although this would entail changes to Chilean legislation. Such a process would help the Pampa del Tamarugal Aquifer become more 'visible' and could trigger genuine discussion about the status and use of groundwater resources. KEYWORDS: Groundwater management, hydrogeological assessment, Pampa del Tamarugal, Chile INTRODUCTION Water resource management in Chile has attracted worldwide interest.

Abstract: The results of 3 1/2 years of studies at the Fog site of Alto Patache, in terms of zoological records and in situ observations, are analysed. The whole animal chain from big Mammals to minute Insects and Arachnoidea (Acarina), has been found present. Two main climatic periods are presented as showing different zoological response: a) the period of “El Niño” 1997-1998, under the influence of local rain, which produced a huge growth of many hectars of Plant cover, and b) the following dry period of “La Niña” 1998-2001, with no rain and lower temperatures. Along them, significant differences in number of Genera and Species were recorded. These zoological field observations are based on extensive entomological collections made in the field. 1. INTRODUCTION short but significant period of heavy rains, fallen end of August 1997, in a small coastal segment, Taking profit of weekly measuring visits of a between Alto Patache and the fishing village of San Standard Fog Collector installed at the coastal hills of Marcos (between 20º49’S and 21º10’S, South of North Chilean Coast at Iquique, the authors describe Iquique).
